They celebrated the day of the forest this Wednesday. They have been logging my nearby little forest the last week in a rather old fashioned way. They used horses and no electric machinery. Now they took the opportunity to teach children and grownups how the forest can be logged in a "natural" way, Not entirely spoiling the area.
It is good not to use heavy tractors, but they still spoil a natural little city forest. There used to be a lot of birds and Roe deer here as well as hare.The man in the last image told me they will change the area to be a "park like" area. Still saving some old trees. Well, we will see when they are done. And what happen to wildlife as it was.
I think every school in town was here in the morning.

Linking up with: WATW Saturdays Critters Our World Tuesday
These are beauiful looking horses and they look happy to be helping with the loggging. Have a lovely weekend.
ReplyDeleteAs always wildlife has to move out - hopefully they have somewhere to go! This is a gentle way of logging with these handsome horses.
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend!
Hello, it is great to see they can log and still not spoil the area. Around here they do not care, knocking down everything in their way. The horses are hard workers, very pretty too. Thank you for linking up and sharing your critters. Happy Saturday, enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeletethat's awesome!
ReplyDeleteHardworking horses, handsome, too.

We live in a logging community. To celebrate Forest Day our local company gave forest tours to show current logging in action. I went last year and it was very informative. We saw logging machines, helicopter operations, tree planting, etc. Our local company really takes care of our forest and operates in a responsible manner.
ReplyDeletethanks!
ReplyDeleteWe have biological woodsmen who log with horses too.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! And how lovely.
ReplyDeleteWell, hope things work for the better. I think it is important to have a green refuge in an urban community.
ReplyDeleteThat must have been very special to see it the natural way! Since I now live in the forest cutting trees has been frequent this year, since many trees died because of beetle infestation.
